I planned to walk around late this afternoon and take pictures of people in costume. Then social anxiety kicked in, so it wasn’t a very productive day, I guess.

Rain on the pavement, reflections catching the light, and a bicycle waiting while everything around it slowly disappears into the background. Black and white street photography has a way of reducing a scene to its essentials: light, contrast, texture and atmosphere. #blackandwhitephotography #streetphotography #bnwstreetphotography #urbanphotography #monochromephotography" (Instagram)

Personalities doing street photography

Mr Inspired (aka the photo taker): nah, no good framing, oh what’s that, snaps, oh what’s that, snaps, no good framing, walks away, nah, *repeats until inspiration is lost*

Mr Procrastinator (aka the photo archivist): *haven’t copied the files from the camera to the computer in days, sometimes weeks*

Mr Poster (aka the social media manager): Where are the snaps from the latest walk? Fine, I’ll just use the snaps from the phone. *passes phone to the editor*

Mr Rookie (aka the photo editor): These are not usable! Out of focus and what the hell is happening on this picture. I don’t know what to do with these. Fine, I’ll just crop this one picture and put a basic filter. Happy?

Mr Poster: Better than nothing! (Puts a simple word or phrase as a title, location, and time of the picture as the caption and posts on various platforms)
